Original Planetside Shuts Down

A pair of titles from Daybreak Games are set to shut down this summer after nearly 20 combined years online.

Planetside and Legends of Norrath will both be taken offline for good over the next two months (via PC Gamer). Massively multiplayer FPS Planetside will go first, with its servers going permanently offline on July 1 at 4 PM PT.

“Planetside 1 has a very important history with Daybreak Games and a special place in the hearts of those who work on its successor,” the developer said in a post on its forums. “While we have run the game for free since 2014, due to evolving business needs and technical requirements it has become necessary to conclude this service. We hope you will take this opportunity to enjoy the remaining time available with each other and please help us give Planetside 1 the sendoff it deserves.”
